Sympthaties to Tom.
He will be back for Travers Day. There is no way Imbriale would be allowed to call that day. Technically John is a good caller but his voice is very monotone and depressing. I feel like I am watching Aqueduct on a Wednesday in January when I hear his calls.

LOL, you know I love Aqueduct Inner! Seriously, John Imbriale is calling races at the greatest venue in horse racing and it sounds like he it is a big chore for him. "And they're off." You'd think he could get a little more enthused. While Durkin has lost a lot of his technical skill, he still has the greatest voice in the business.

Is the Baron of Balmoral finally back?
